/usr/local/? It seems that there is a non-system Perl installation running, while yum installs modules only for system perl (the one in /usr/bin/perl, not /usr/local/...). Unless there is something valuable in /usr/local/ that you installed yourself, it might be reasonable to move /usr/local/* somewhere and try running with CentOS-provided /usr/bin/perl.

[root@server DBD-mysql-4.028-Ba4U9q]# perl Makefile.PL && make

make: *** [dbdimp.o] Error 1
[download]

Well, on my system `make` in DBD-mysql-4.028 prints some the commands being executed (and their output) by default. And Makefile.PL is very verbose by itself. Sorry, I can't explain this behaviour. Maybe if you run perl Makefile.PL verbose && make NOECHO=""? It still does not explain where the output of your compiler goes. Is there, by any chance, a log file in the directory DBD-mysql-4.028-Ba4U9q?

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
